Centerville Storm Drain Marking Program
We encourage our citizens to get involved in marking storm drains throughout Centerville. Markers are glued to storm structures to tell citizens not to dump pollutants into the storm drains. The participation of volunteer groups is also a way to educate people about stormwater-related issues. Contact our utility department to find out how to volunteer!
